During the process of rebuilding my beast, I've changed all the sensors and other stuff on the RENIX system.

I think it runs pretty well, all things considered. I get good gas mileage, it starts right up, and really hasn't given me a lot of problems.

But..... What if I wanted to nix the computer, throw on an older distributor with points and regular vacuum hoses and such.

What do you old timers think? I'm guessing a lot of stuff wouldn't work or would be a nightmare to get them to work.

 

That is correct. Going from sequential MPFI backwards in time 100 years to a carbureted configuration is not straight forward nor even REMOTELY worth it.

 

Hey fellas.

Got a 99 Cherokee Sport w/152,xxx miles.

My fans won't turn on at 1, 2 or 3 and ONLY comes on at the 4 setting. Doesn't matter if it's A/C, defrost, etc. The fans will only turn on at full blast. Any ideas I can start to troubleshoot for that?

 

I have a question that is really baffling me. I have a 1991 cherokee laredo and I can't for the life of me figure out what rear axle she has. There is nothing indicating what axle is on the old girl so I don't know how to go about figuring it out. Help! haha

 

Change the blower motor resistor. I recently had the same issue and I changed that out and I get all four settings perfectly now. Bout a fifteen dollar part if memory serves

 

Here is an axle ID chart. My 91 XJ Laredo had a Dana 35.
Can also get a free build sheet from jeep, all you need is the VIN.

 

Where can you get a build sheet from Jeep? That would be cool.

 

Here is the link, usually an e-mail response within 24 hours.

Awesome, thank you for your insight! This saves me a lot of guessing.

 

great. Thanks man.

 

Post up a picture of your rear axle's cover.

 

Hey guys new to the forum and to the jeep world but I have a 95 jeep cherokee xj with te 4.0, runs great but it will only start when I turn the key half way, if I turn the key all the way like you would normally start a vehicle it won't do anything, any advice would be helpful thanks in advance

 

Sounds like the contacts are worn out. I would think a new ignition cylinder would fix the problem

 

That is what I thought.. I just wanted an opinion from guys who have been dealing with jeeps it's all new to me so that's what I'll shoot for first thanks I really appreciate it

 

No problem man, hope it helps!
